Walt Becker is a Runt

Dimension Films announced yesterday (yes, we're so behind!) that they have acquired the rights to develop and produce Runt, a high concept comedic pitch by Walt Becker (Wild Hogs and Van Wilder) and David Gallagher. The screenplay will be co-written by Becker and Gallagher. Becker will also direct.

Runt is a high concept comedy about twin brothers who are complete opposites.

Bob Weinstein stated, "I am very excited about being in business with Walt and think he is incredibly talented and has a long and successful career ahead of him. His vision for Runt is absolutely hilarious."

"I’m very excited to be working with Bob Weinstein and everyone at Dimension," said Becker. "I’ve long respected their passion for film and their support of filmmakers."

Wow, how political these two are. Of course, I would be political as well if dealing with Bob Weinstein.
